根据短文内容,从短文后的A-F选项中选出5个适当的选项补全短文(选项中有一项为多余选项)。

I know that you get the idea from the Internet that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—your ticket to success is through singing, basketball or being a superstar. 1.

The truth is that being successful is hard. You will not love every subject that you study. 2. Not all homework will seem completely related to your life right at this minute. And you won’t necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.

That is okay. 3. J.K. Rowling—who wrote Harry Potter—her first Harry Potter book was not accepted 12 times before it was finally published. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team. He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career(职业生涯). But he once said,“I have failed over and over again in my life. And that’s why I succeed.”

These people succeeded because they understood the secret of success—you can not let your failures decide you. 4. You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time. So if you get into trouble, that doesn’t mean you are a troublemaker, it means you need to learn to act right. 5.

A. You have to let your failures teach you.

B. So many of you dream of being successful by hard work.

C. You won’t get along well with every teacher that you have.

D. But it is possible that you’re not going to be any of those things.

E. If you get a bad grade, that doesn’t mean you’re stupid, it means you need to work harder.

F. Sometimes the most successful people in the world are the ones who have had the most failures.
